If the Steiners sign, I’d expect to see: WrestleMania 9 Rick with jacket and/or tag title (and I guess the headgear might be an accessory rather than sculpted on) WrestleMania 9 Scott with jacket and/or tag title Big Poppa Pump Scott with chainmail and shades (With any of the above possibly having a chase variant.) And maybe another RSC exclusive Big Poppa Pump. Then maybe a basic two-pack of them, or at least a basic of Scott. All of those would be great. Since these guys didn't change up their attires that much, they could easily be the figures with the chase in any set. WrestleMania 9 is my top tag attire of theirs, but their Survivor Series 93, Raw 93 cage match with Money Inc, Royal Rumble 94, would both be great as well. Scott wore different colors of the shorts when he was Big Poppa Bump (Red, White, Black), any of those would be great. When Rick was a singles star at the end of the 90s, he wore a few different variations of the same attire, any of those would be great too. |

Not getting too excited, but this is a good start.

I don’t want to get excited only to be met with disappointment. Anyways, I’d like a big poopa pump in his white singlet, chainmail, sunglasses and two sets of dumbbells with hoochie mommas on the side. For Rick, I’d take a mid-late 90s version please. Hollarrrrrr, if ya hear me! *insert siren nose* big poopa pump |

Sharmell in the Hall of Fame? Why? Booker pulling some strings for this one.

Wasn't Jeff in legal mumbo jumbo, that's why they couldn't get a figure made at the time?

As a couple of people have said. Brad shepherd is absolutely full of sh*t. Until someone reliable confirms it I wouldn’t even worry about if they sign merch deals.

Even though hof doesn’t equal figs, I can’t help but be hopeful. Top 5 wants since the beginning and there’s so many cool outfits. Would need to cover all eras of them. I’d hope we’d atleast get 3 looks from their 90-94 era

I shall remain cautiously optimistic for figures. |

They say never say never
But I do t believe it until I see it. Scott’s seems to carry a grudge snd claimed he won’t accept if offered previously a few times
That said in an era with a lot of great tag teams - and I mean real tag teams not just 2 singles put together - they were stand outs for me.
Phenomenal double team moves

Scott has been very vocal in his comments about Legends deals. It's possible they sweeten the pot and offer him terms that he would agree to. But it's also very possible they do the HOF and that's it, or Rick signs a merch deal and Scott doesn't. Everyone keep this in mind for your own sanity. Hoping he’s changed his mind Yeah, but I’m pretty sure he’s also been very vocal about how dumb the WWE HOF is. If it is true that they’ll be inducted, maybe he changes his mind on legends deal. I mean what does it hurt to get royalties off of stuff WWE makes? Of course they’ll get majority of it, but you also get a % to. Idc make a figure of me and I’ll take a $1 per figure, see if it bothers me to get a check every once in a while for doing nothing. |

Brad Shepard is as credible as Virgil. Shut it down.

If they don't sign a Legends deal, surely someone else has to snap them up on a figure deal.
With the various independent figure manufacturers these days (Chella, Zombie etc), I'd imagine they'd get the favourable terms on royalties that they (supposedly) want. And there'd be no shortage of demand, would probably be the biggest signing any of those indie creators could make.

Also no license issues as they used the Steiner brothers name in wwf, wcw, Japan etc so while not their real names I imagine they own the name |

They use the Steiner names at conventions/signings etc., so it must be fine. Relative to his accomplishments in wrestling, Scott Steiner has to be one of the most under-represented wrestlers in figure form (if we ignore some of the Toybiz repaints/re-releases). |

And especially in his Scotty days (pre big poppa pump) both his and ricks singlets were really colourful and done right would really pop! Their letterman jackets, their colourful attires, Rick’s head guard - they could do so much with them nowadays! |
